Netanyahu finds himself in a politically untenable position: AJE correspondent

Before a government meeting, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made remarks, indirectly addressing National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's recent interview with the Wall Street Journal. Netanyahu asserted, "I don't need help navigating our relations with the US and the international community." This underscores Netanyahu's reliance on Ben-Gvir amid growing fractures within the coalition. Ben-Gvir's increasing criticism of Netanyahu and doubts about a ceasefire deal prompted Netanyahu's public response, highlighting Ben-Gvir's significance to the coalition. Netanyahu faces mounting criticism and pressure from various government factions, leaving him in a politically precarious position.
